What is the difference between N2 and co2?

Question

this is for paint ball what is the diference betwean the two

Answer 1

Pballs shot with N2 or compressed air have a constant speed while with co2 the speed varies. You cannot use co2 when the weather is cold because it will freeze. Co2 tank are way cheaper than N2 or compressed air. Co2 tanks are made of only aluminum & N2 are made of aluminum and carbon fiber. A co2 tank will probably last you longer when playing while N2 will have to be re-filled every game you play. Hope this helps you because the people that answer before I don't think they saw that this was related to Pball.

Answer 2

We present 2338ndash2322 cm-1 (4.277ndash4.307 mum) infrared spectra of a number of N2-containing mixed molecular ices and demonstrate that the strength of the infrared "forbidden" band due to the NtbondN stretch near 2328 cm-1 (4.295 mum) is extremely sensitive to the composition of the ice. The strength of the 2328 cm-1 N2 fundamental is significantly enhanced relative to that of pure N2 ice when NH3, H2O, or CO2 are present, but it is largely unaffected by the presence of CO, CH4, or O2. We use the laboratory data in conjunction with Infrared Space Observatory (ISO) data that probe several lines of sight through dense molecular clouds to place limits on the abundance of interstellar solid phase N2 and the composition of the ices. Deriving upper limits is complicated by the presence of overlapping absorptions due to CO2 gas in the clouds and, in some cases, to photospheric CO in the background star. These upper limits are just beginning to be low enough to constrain interstellar grain models and the composition of possible N2-bearing interstellar ices. We outline the search criteria that will need to be met if solid interstellar N2 is to be detected in the future. We also discuss some of the implications of the presence of warm CO2 gas along the lines of sight to embedded protostars and demonstrate that its presence may help resolve certain puzzles associated with the previously derived gas/solid CO2 ratios and the relative abundances of polar and nonpolar ices toward these objects. Finally, we briefly comment on the possible implications of these results for the interpretation of N2 detections on outer solar system bodies.

Answer 3

N2 = Nitrogen;
A colorless, tasteless, odorless gas that is the most abundant constituent of dry air. It comprises 78.09%.

Co2
Carbon dioxide is the main greenhouse gas created by combustion, the so-called greenhouse effect, emitted primarily from human activity such as burning of fossil fuels to generate electricity and vehicles. Scientists believe these greenhouse gases are causing the earth's climate to change.
